On Saturday, our movement won the Ward 8 Democrats Endorsement for U.S. Representative (Shadow Statehood) with 88 percent of the vote! We have now won more support from Democratic organizations than the incumbent.

With your help, we can win the Democratic Primary for U.S. Representative (Shadow Statehood)! We’ve worked hard to earn your support, but we will need your engagement and involvement to redirect our fight towards freedom! I am honored that such an overwhelming number of residents are confident that we are prepared to lead the movement for D.C. Statehood and Equal Rights! We now have the support of the Gertrude Stein Democratic Club, Ward 8 Democrats, and the DC Latino Caucus!

Special thanks go to the involved and dedicated members of the WARD EIGHT DEMOCRATS for truly making a statement and impact on the 2010 Elections Process. They are the only Ward Democratic Organization to host forums and endorsement votes for all of the citywide candidates, for which they should be commended.

To build on this momentum, we are requesting that you donate and attend a campaign fundraiser on July 27th, in the offices of Capitol Counsel LLC. The event is from 6:30 – 8:30 at 900 19th Street NW. The suggested contribution is 50 dollars. Please RSVP to rsvp@sutton-grp.com! Hosting the event in the offices of a congressional advocacy firm is part of our strategy to leverage the professional public policy community here in D.C. to assist in the fight for our rights. Let’s send a message! Please email nate@electnate.com if you would be willing to serve on our host committee to help spread the word and lend credibility to our event.
